What you need to know before you go

How do I find the best deals on a Springfield Budget car rental?

We strive to get you the lowest rates, whether you book. But booking your car well ahead of your trip can help keep spending low. Make sure to not add an additional driver and go over the mileage policy to avoid any surprise fees.

What should I carry with me when I get my car rental in Springfield?

You will need to carry with you your driver's license and a credit card in your name.

What's Springfield's minimum age to rent a car?

Budget's minimum age to rent a car in Springfield is 21. Make sure to review Budget's policies, as there may be limitations if you are under 25 or for higher category vehicles especially.

What kind of Budget rental car should I get for my trip to Springfield?

That depends on your needs and what you'll be doing when you visit Springfield. Economy or compact vehicles are great for short commutes and are easier to park. Commute times in Springfield are close to 25 minutes, so you may find a mid-size car or SUV more comfortable. If you want to lower your emissions and save on gas, then choose a hybrid vehicle. Those looking for a dash of luxury on their Springfield getaway can choose a higher-end car model like a Cadillac or Audi or similar.

Do I need insurance when I rent a car in the United States?

In the United States you do need to have insurance before you rent a car from Budget. Many of the major credit cards (MasterCard, Visa, American Express and Discover) generally provide some coverage. However, many of them have limitations, such as not covering larger vehicles, like trucks or SUVs. Make sure to find out exactly what your credit card will cover and how much before you head to Springfield. Additionally, as a United States citizen, you can also add on Collision Damage Coverage with CarRentals.com at checkout.

Does Budget require a deposit at the time of booking my rental car?

Budget requires a deposit when you book your rental car. Budget will block the deposit on your credit once you reserve your vehicle for your trip to Springfield. Please be aware that the deposit will vary greatly depending on the make and model of the car.

What is the fuel policy on my Budget car rental?

At CarRentals.com, we suggest a full to full policy. You pick up your Budget rental with full tank, and you should bring it back it filled up. For a cheaper rate, it is best to find a gas station before you return the car to Budget. Stations near or around airports or car rental places tend to have higher prices.

Why should I get unlimited miles?

Springfield has enough to keep you entertained, but you may want to drive to nearby cities to see what else Illinois has to offer. You can explore the rest of the region free of mileage limits once you've had an evening out in Springfield's downtown or gone out downtown. If you want to add some fun to your Springfield trip, you can also go to Knight's Action Park & Caribbean Water Adventure and spend a night riding the park's attractions.
